I am (or at least will be shortly) up on the Sketches in Thyme blog with sketch #220 reveal

I have used papers from Kaisercraft, as well as the diecut sticker strips, and word strips, and the alphas as well.

These pictures were from a hugely fun day we had in Bali recently - quad bike riding (hubby drove, not me) and canyon tubing - which was the most fun ever, and included a flying fox section which also was awesome fun.

So, my dear friends, head on over to Sketches in Thyme and partake of the sketch, link up

So, my home town is Devonport, so my layout incorporates: Date stamp, Enamel dots, Veneer, One photo, Neutral background, Polka dots, Rhinestones and a Tag. If you have a letter double up like I do, you only need to use that stash item once, unless you wish to use it more than once (eg, 2 x O = you could use 2 photo's)

So, what do you think? Like my challenge? If so, cant wait to see what you come up with.

I am very excited to announce that I am joining the Design Team at Sunny Day Crafting.Challenges are posted each and every Tuesday, and as long as they contain paper, anything goes - cards, tags, journals, ATC's, layouts, etc, etc:

This is purely a fun challenge blog without any sponsors, therefore there are no prizes offered, but who needs prizes, right? Head on over and check out the the current entries.I will be back with my first project for Sunny Day Crafting on Tuesday.Deb xx

The forum is closing at Turtle Soup and Bev has worked extremely hard to find a new home for us to continue to chat, and inspire.

Our new home is called Creative Inspiration and it flows along the very same way that Turtle Soup does. There is a week changeover period where all challenges, etc will appear on both boards before the switch to Creative Inspration is permanent. You will need to apply for an account before you can enter the forum. So why not head over and get applying. Looking forward to seeing you all there :)

I have chosen this simply sensational layout from TurtleGirl from way back in 2006. I loved the single photo in the middle of the page, and the background accent.

I have given my layout a modern twist by using mixed media on the background. I have used the June Mixed Media Kit from Shop and Crop Scrapbooking
